Summary: Hyperbaric Oxygen
Therapy (HBOT) comprises keeping patients of brain injury, non-healing wounds,
etc. at high atmospheric pressure ( ~ 1.5 to 1.75 Atmospheres) in an
environment (with mask/hood) of pure oxygen, for an hour or so daily, to enhance
oxygen delivery to tissues to promote and improve healing, reduce
hospitalization duration (by 25 to 40%) and costs, and reduce morbidity. In some
cases like carbon-monoxide poisoning, it's use is almost mandatory. Now evidence
comes that ambient air at 1.3 ATA may be almost just as useful. Last updated September 29, 2009
